Blue Bayou

I feel so bad I got a worried mind
I'm so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind
On Blue Bayou

Saving nickels, saving dimes
Working till the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times
On Blue Bayou

I'm going back someday
Come what may to Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine
And the world is mine on Blue Bayou

Where those fishing boats
With their sails afloat
If I could only see

That familiar sunrise
Through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be

Gonna see my baby again
Gonna be with some of my friends
Maybe I'll feel better again
On Blue Bayou

Saving nickels, saving dimes
Working till the sun don't shine
Looking forward the happier times
On Blue Bayou

I'm going back someday
Come what may to Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine
And the world is mine on Blue Bayou

Where those fishing boats
With their sails afloat
If I could only see

That familiar sunrise
Through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be

Oh that boy of mine
By my side
The silver moon
And the evening tide

Oh, some sweet day
Gonna take away
This hurtin' inside

Well I'd never be blue
My dreams come true
On Blue Bayou
